We strive hard to produce a great nut!
Here at Skipper Family Farms, Est. 1912, we strive to produce a great nut! What makes our nuts better than others? Well, we don't hold our nuts over from year to year! We don't cold storage our nuts. When you buy from us, you are getting the current year's harvest!
Want to look for quality? Look at the color of the nut meat. If it's still a light golden meat, then it's fresh. If it's dark, it's not fresh!
When do nuts harvest and are ready to be cracked and shelled? Usually, late October and November. If you see a sign in August that says fresh pecans, you can bet that nut is the previous year's nut that has been stored.
So be sure to stop by our store from November to around February to get your fresh nuts. We limit our supply in order to keep our nuts fresh.
We also offer flavored pecans too! Our chocolate and praline pecans are a huge hit!
